New Trailer for Pixels Shows Video Games Overshadow Adam Sandler

Today we have a new trailer for Pixels where we get to see more of the video game characters in action as well as the actors of course.  From what I see in the trailer it is fair to say for the most part the actors are overshadowed by their video game adversaries (Though to be fair to Peter Dinklage and Michelle Monaghan they don’t do a bad job either).  Starring Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage, Josh Gad, Ashley Benson and Brian Cox, Pixels is directed by Chris Columbus and will be in UK cinemas August 12th.

As kids in the 1980s, Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler), Will Cooper (Kevin James), Ludlow Lamonsoff (Josh Gad), and Eddie “The Fire Blaster” Plant (Peter Dinklage) saved the world thousands of times – at 25 cents a game in the video arcades. Now, they’re going to have to do it for real. In Pixels, when intergalactic aliens discover video feeds of classic arcade games and misinterpret them as a declaration of war, they attack the Earth, using the video games as the models for their assaults — and now-U.S. President Cooper must call on his old-school arcade friends to save the world from being destroyed by PAC-MAN, Donkey Kong, Galaga, Centipede, and Space Invaders. Joining them is Lt. Col. Violet Van Patten (Michelle Monaghan), a specialist supplying the arcaders with unique weapons to fight the aliens.
